We are asking Foxglove Wind to stop this proposed 46 Vestas V163-4.5 megawatt wind turbine project and to respect the people who live in Christian County, Shelby County, and near the county line of Macon County. This project is planned to be up and running by 2029, and it would stretch through our land, and change the places our families depend on every day.
Our community is coming together because this is not just about turbines on a map. It is about land use, local control, and the future of the area we call home. Large industrial wind projects can bring major changes to farmland, open space, quiet rural roads, and the natural character of a place. Many residents are worried about what this proposal could mean for the land, the views, the peace of the area, and the long-term well-being of our community.
We are collecting signatures to show that people in our community are against this proposed project. We will use this petition to bring our concerns to city officials and to make it clear that we want our land protected. We are asking decision-makers to listen to the people who live here and to put the needs of the community first before allowing this project to move forward.
Our land is more than a place on a developer’s plan. It is where we live, work, raise our families, and build our lives. We deserve a real voice in what happens to it.
We live in the country for the beautiful scenery and for the peacefulness. It takes away farm ground and it also causes habitat loss. These kinds of disturbance have very real consequences. There is no way that you can replace what would be lost. The wildlife and nature surrounding them are worth protecting. This project is not worth sacrificing our livelihood or those of the wildlife.
